00:01:30,159 --> 00:01:31,840
heck are you doing?

34
00:01:31,879 --> 00:01:32,319
Speaker 4: Good man?

35
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:35,079
Speaker 5: It's definitely feels like that's that championship time of the year,

36
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:35,560
doesn't it.

37
00:01:35,719 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 3: Dude?

38
00:01:36,359 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 2: I get psyched about it, especially now that we're in

39
00:01:39,359 --> 00:01:41,480
a conference right like you know, we were a part

40
00:01:41,519 --> 00:01:44,079
of it, Mountain West Conference. It was awesome to be

41
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,920
able to seal the championship, the regular season championship, you know,

42
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,120
versus in two thousand and six versus New Mexico was awesome.

43
00:01:51,799 --> 00:01:55,079
But it's even at a greater scale now, right, college

44
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:59,920
football has has changed significantly, and BYU with it. Now

45
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,519
that Bilway's a part of the Big Boys club, it

46
00:02:01,599 --> 00:02:04,480
just means more and there's more eyeballs on BYU.

47
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 3: The branding, the imaging.

48
00:02:06,879 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 2: The equity that has been built from like nineteen seventy

49
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:16,000
two to present day. Now it's finally really paying off

50
00:02:16,039 --> 00:02:16,759
for BYU.

51
00:02:18,199 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, this is an amazing time to be a student

52
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,000
athlete at YU, to be a fan for BUYU. The

53
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,159
Big Twelve Conference is an amazing conference, and November football

54
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,639
is so exciting, especially when you're sitting there at no

55
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,599
You're exactly right about being in a conference. It's fun

56
00:02:33,039 --> 00:02:35,159
to be paying attention to what's going on in other

57
00:02:35,199 --> 00:02:37,879
conference games. It's fun to know where you are in

58
00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,560
the standings and to be an undefeated team sitting at

59
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,120
the top of the Big Twelve with a a huge

60
00:02:44,199 --> 00:02:47,919
game this weekend. As a competitor, as an athlete and

61
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:50,479
as a fan of Billia football, it's just all great

62
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,879
fields right now and November football, Like like we were saying,

63
00:02:54,479 --> 00:02:56,560
it's just such an amazing time of the year for

64
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,000
all levels. You go to the high school level, it

65
00:02:59,039 --> 00:03:02,400
equals playoffs, go to the college level. It's that buying

66
00:03:02,439 --> 00:03:04,639
for those top spots, you know, the chance to play

67
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,439
in the conference championship, And it's just such a great

68
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,599
time right now to be a BIU fan. And I

69
00:03:11,599 --> 00:03:13,759
think that they've done such a great job of setting

70
00:03:13,759 --> 00:03:17,479
themselves up for what can really be maybe one of

71
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,879
the best Novembers that the program has had in a long, long,

72
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:21,479
long time.

73
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:22,759
Speaker 3: One of the.

74
00:03:23,039 --> 00:03:25,639
Speaker 2: Difficult schedules that they're having to face two in this

75
00:03:25,719 --> 00:03:29,479
guntlet They started off with U of A on the road,

76
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:33,000
Utah home. They beat Iowas State on the road. Now

77
00:03:33,039 --> 00:03:36,319
they get Texas Tech on the road. A Rod stated

78
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,960
that this was the most difficult stretch of games in

79
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:42,960
BYU football history, and by has been up to the task,

80
00:03:43,159 --> 00:03:47,719
having won three straight, one in overtime. One that was

81
00:03:48,039 --> 00:03:50,800
you know, pretty close versus Utah twenty four to twenty one,

82
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,960
and then another one on the road versus Iowa State

83
00:03:54,039 --> 00:03:54,599
being down.

84
00:03:55,319 --> 00:03:58,479
Speaker 3: You no, not too.

85
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,639
Speaker 2: Big in the first app but it seemed like it

86
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:01,599
was very big in the first half. Now they got

87
00:04:01,639 --> 00:04:06,479
Texas Tech, TCU, Cincinnati, and UCF. How do you navigate

88
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,879
this back end of the schedule in order to kind

89
00:04:09,879 --> 00:04:13,080
of just stay right, stay on task, you know, get healthy,

90
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,920
be strong. Obviously, the the the bye week came at

91
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:20,800
a very fratuitous time. How does BYU navigate this?

92
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:21,319
Speaker 3: Do you think?

93
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 5: Well? I think the best way is to focus one

94
00:04:24,879 --> 00:04:26,639
day at a time, to not even look at the

95
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,839
game that's ahead of you. I always try to tell guys,

96
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,000
you know, when I'm especially speaking with quarterbacks going into

97
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:37,319
big games. Let the game be Saturday. You focus on Monday,

98
00:04:37,399 --> 00:04:40,319
you focus on Tuesday, you focus on Wednesday. All of

99
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,680
those things lead up to the game. What can be

100
00:04:44,439 --> 00:04:46,680
something that pulls you away from it is when you

101
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,639
start feeling all of the pressures, the worries or whatever

102
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,279
you need to think about because of the Saturday game,

103
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,560
the impact. You know, it's like an Olympian going to

104
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,480
the Olympics. You don't want to think about the week

105
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:02,879
of the Olympic, the what ifs. What if it plays

106
00:05:02,959 --> 00:05:05,879
out this way? What if my training and all of

107
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,160
this this happens, or what if it doesn't play out

108
00:05:09,199 --> 00:05:10,839
in the first you know, like let's say it's an

109
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:14,199
event where you have like a preliminary and then a finals.

110
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,519
What if my preliminary heat or match doesn't go this way,

111
00:05:17,519 --> 00:05:19,519
and then what you don't want to think about the

112
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:21,800
what ifs. What you do is you put the work

113
00:05:21,879 --> 00:05:23,920
in each day of the week and then you just

114
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,480
let it happen. It's the same with conference play. It

115
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,279
would be so easy right now. And I think this

116
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,839
is what fans enjoy. This is why we have talk shows,

117
00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,399
is because you can talk about all the different scenarios. Okay,

118
00:05:34,879 --> 00:05:36,800
you know, look what happened when we beat Utah, And

119
00:05:36,879 --> 00:05:39,079
look what happened now that Utah went and beat Cincinnati

120
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,720
and people thought that Cincinnati might be vying for a

121
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,560
conference you know, title game, and now because they lost,

122
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,160
and then after beat Iowa State, Iowa State loses again.

123
00:05:47,639 --> 00:05:51,480
There's all these things that can really distract you from

124
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:53,839
what is the most important thing. And the most important

125
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,680
thing on a Monday is preparation Monday and Monday's football practice.

126
00:05:57,879 --> 00:06:00,360
That's all that matters. Then you have to go each

127
00:06:00,439 --> 00:06:02,240
day of the week just like that. I think it's

128
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,399
a competitive advantage to the team that has the most

129
00:06:05,439 --> 00:06:08,759
players and coaches that have that ability to do that

130
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,160
they can keep the main thing, the main thing and

131
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,000
just focus on that. And for a BYU team that yes,

132
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:18,560
quite honestly, the road ahead of them, like they have

133
00:06:18,639 --> 00:06:20,959
a big one this weekend, and if they can get

134
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,000
through that, I think that all of those games that

135
00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,480
are after this they're going to be favored in. And

136
00:06:25,519 --> 00:06:28,360
so it would be very easy to say, oh my gosh,

137
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,199
if we can get through Texas Tech, it is a

138
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,959
road to the conference championship game. And the key is

139
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,720
to not even worry about that, to let the fans

140
00:06:37,759 --> 00:06:40,000
think about those things, let them get excited. But as

141
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:43,160
a player, you walk in Monday morning and all you

142
00:06:43,199 --> 00:06:45,079
care about is Monday b.

143
00:06:45,319 --> 00:06:47,439
Speaker 3: YU versus Texas Tech this week.

144
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 2: I'm feeling that BA you should be healthier than they

145
00:06:50,759 --> 00:06:53,000
have been over the last three weeks.

146
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:55,199
Speaker 3: I think LJ will be ready to go.

147
00:06:55,600 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 2: I think I think that our linebackers should be healthy

148
00:07:00,079 --> 00:07:04,000
year than they have been. But Texas Tech is no joke.

149
00:07:04,079 --> 00:07:06,199
They've lost one game, it was on the road to ASU,

150
00:07:06,879 --> 00:07:11,560
and other than that they've had dominating victories. Like I

151
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,879
don't know, I'm looking at the closest scores. That may

152
00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,319
have been the Utah game. That was the closest game

153
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,800
that they've had. Outside of that one loss, everybody else

154
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:26,600
they've beaten by like twenty one plus points every single game.

155
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 3: What do we know about Texas Tech.

156
00:07:29,319 --> 00:07:33,639
Speaker 5: I mean, I remember watching the ASU Texas Tech game

157
00:07:34,639 --> 00:07:37,639
being somebody I like yourself from the state of Arizona,

158
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,399
great state of Arizona. You know, I grew up watching

159
00:07:40,439 --> 00:07:43,839
Arizona State football. I still follow ASU football and knowing

160
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,959
what was being talked about about this Texas Tech team,

161
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,519
the amount of money that they put into the program,

162
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,720
the players that they brought in, the fact that they

163
00:07:51,759 --> 00:07:54,759
were they're going to be on BYU schedule. I paid

164
00:07:54,759 --> 00:07:57,439
attention to that game, and Texas Tech came out to

165
00:07:57,519 --> 00:08:01,120
jump and went ahead on Arizona, and then Arizona State

166
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,600
put together this big comeback at the end, and you

167
00:08:03,639 --> 00:08:05,319
know what does some of it have to do. It's

168
00:08:05,319 --> 00:08:07,680
a home game and away game for Texas Tech. A

169
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,079
little bit that was still early in the season. I

170
00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,839
think it's going to be interesting to see what it

171
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,000
does when now Texas Tech and both of these teams

172
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,800
are on this gigantic stage. I know by Youth played

173
00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,360
a big new kickoff game before, but you know, hey,

174
00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,399
this is college game Day, this is on the road,

175
00:08:23,879 --> 00:08:27,759
this is I'm trying to think the last time game

176
00:08:27,839 --> 00:08:30,399
day went to Texas Tech. It's got to be almost

177
00:08:30,439 --> 00:08:33,799
probably way back in the Mahomes era, my guess, in

178
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,440
some of those games. I mean, it might have even

179
00:08:35,519 --> 00:08:38,200
been the game when the Baker Mayfield and Patrick Mahomes

180
00:08:38,519 --> 00:08:41,240
went off for like twelve hundred yards of offense, somewhere

181
00:08:41,279 --> 00:08:43,440
around that era. But you know, it's going to be

182
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:46,320
interesting to see how it shakes down now when both

183
00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,559
of these teams. It feels like there's so much on

184
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,960
the line. I think for a player like Bear, who

185
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,120
is still green in terms of college football, He's only

186
00:08:55,159 --> 00:08:58,399
played eight college football games. Sometimes he's walking out on

187
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,360
the field and he may just feel like, you know what,

188
00:09:00,399 --> 00:09:02,240
I'm just going to do what I've always done. I'm

189
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,679
just going to go out there and be one of eleven.

190
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:07,039
I'm going to play the best I can. And you know,

191
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:10,000
I think Bear does a great job because it's all

192
00:09:10,039 --> 00:09:11,759
new to him of just you know what, what can

193
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:13,399
I do. I've got nothing to worry about. I'm just

194
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,360
going to go out there play what I can play.

195
00:09:15,399 --> 00:09:17,320
I'm still very new to college football. I think that

196
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:21,000
could be an advantage in a situation like this. But

197
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,080
it's you know, definitely an exciting game I mean, I

198
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,120
wish I could get to the stadium in that environment.

199
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:27,759
I think it's going to be amazing for the BIU

200
00:09:27,799 --> 00:09:29,320
fans that travel there to be a part of that.

201
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,440
Speaker 2: No doubt about it, John, we've seen progress from Bear,

202
00:09:33,759 --> 00:09:37,240
it seems week over week. This last game on the road,

203
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:42,279
he threw for a lot of yards and was very accurate,

204
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,960
was very good. What have you seen specifically in his

205
00:09:46,159 --> 00:09:49,399
progress that makes you optimistic that he can head out

206
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,120
on the road after a bye week and be just

207
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,799
as good or even better than what he's showcased thus far.

208
00:09:55,799 --> 00:09:58,519
Speaker 5: Well, I think bye weeks always help you become just

209
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,639
a little healthier. I think those guys, as you know,

210
00:10:01,759 --> 00:10:04,799
this time of year, you're playing with something, whether it's

211
00:10:04,799 --> 00:10:07,600
this you know, slight ankle injury, a little shoulder ding.

212
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:10,559
Your ribs are a little bit beat up. You've been

213
00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:12,840
dealing with bruising in an area that you can't get

214
00:10:12,879 --> 00:10:15,440
to go away because you keep getting hit on it.

215
00:10:15,799 --> 00:10:18,480
All players this time of year, when they get a

216
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,759
bye week, it's not ability to just be a little

217
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,879
more fresh, to let the body heal. And I know,

218
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:27,159
look with how much Bears ran the football, I guarantee

219
00:10:27,159 --> 00:10:28,879
his body's been beat up a little bit, you know,

220
00:10:28,919 --> 00:10:33,000
without divulging too much information, he's just like everybody else where,

221
00:10:33,519 --> 00:10:36,279
he's having to play through some things, and so I

222
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:37,720
think it's going to be really good for him to

223
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:39,639
get healthy. I think Bear has done such a good

224
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,519
job in decision making, and we've talked about it multiple

225
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,159
times on the show of just how good he's done

226
00:10:45,279 --> 00:10:48,360
at it's going to sound silly, but taking good sacks

227
00:10:48,919 --> 00:10:52,200
and taking off and running with the football when nothing's there,

228
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:56,360
and not trying to do too much, especially laid in games.

229
00:10:56,399 --> 00:10:56,519
Speaker 4: Right.

230
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 5: There's been a few games where Byu has had to

231
00:10:59,159 --> 00:11:01,440
play from behind him the fourth quarter, and it's very

232
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,720
easy as a young quarterback to take some of the

233
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,120
chances that you would have taken in high school football

234
00:11:07,759 --> 00:11:09,919
and to try that in college football and have it

235
00:11:10,080 --> 00:11:14,320
end up not working out. I see that constantly. Bear's

236
00:11:14,399 --> 00:11:16,960
just done such a good job again of recognizing is

237
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,360
it worth the risk, or can I do something else?

238
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,840
Or can I, you know, just eat the ball here

239
00:11:21,919 --> 00:11:23,759
and live to play the next play. And I think

240
00:11:23,759 --> 00:11:27,399
that in a game like this this weekend, those attributes

241
00:11:27,399 --> 00:11:29,559
of Bear, the ability to step on a field and

242
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:31,919
remain calm, the ability to be in a shootout in

243
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:34,759
a college game, and to what I think is Bear

244
00:11:34,879 --> 00:11:36,639
is just used to this. He's just used to being

245
00:11:36,639 --> 00:11:39,720
in shootouts because that was literally his high school scenario

246
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,000
ninety percent of the time, and he's doing it on

247
00:11:42,039 --> 00:11:43,840
a big stage. I think all of those will benefit

248
00:11:43,919 --> 00:11:45,120
him this Saturday.

249
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,960
Speaker 2: What's crazy is you've talked about this from the inception

250
00:11:49,639 --> 00:11:54,600
of the Bear Bachmeyer era. You said, Bear Bachmeyer throughout

251
00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,159
his entire high school career just found a way to

252
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:02,200
win lat In games through you through but also most

253
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,519
definitely with his running ability. And we continue to see that,

254
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:08,559
like he hasn't really changed much. Like the Bear Bachmeyer

255
00:12:08,639 --> 00:12:11,480
brand is what it is, It's who he is, and

256
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,000
I'm surprised it's translating to the collegiate level.

257
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 3: It doesn't always do that, you know.

258
00:12:18,159 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean here's what I would say. This is

259
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,200
one of the really cool things about how good this

260
00:12:22,279 --> 00:12:26,279
BYU football team is and also what this BYU team

261
00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:29,879
was before Bear got here. This was again, without divulging

262
00:12:29,879 --> 00:12:32,759
too much information, this is what was part of the

263
00:12:32,799 --> 00:12:39,000
conversations leading up to Bear looking at BYU was just

264
00:12:39,919 --> 00:12:44,679
look at how BYU has utilized abilities in the Jaron Halls,

265
00:12:44,759 --> 00:12:47,519
the j k ret Slash, the Zach Wilson's and how

266
00:12:47,639 --> 00:12:50,840
Bear's game. That's what his game has been in high

267
00:12:50,879 --> 00:12:53,320
school football. I mean, you can go to the kids

268
00:12:53,399 --> 00:12:55,720
highlight tape, or you can look at the stats and

269
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,039
late in games, go look and see how his legs

270
00:12:59,080 --> 00:13:02,279
contributed to either keeping his team in the game or

271
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,639
helping his team win the game. And then so to

272
00:13:04,759 --> 00:13:09,120
go and place him in a scheme where Aaron utilizes

273
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,159
that ability with his quarterbacks. I mean, go look at

274
00:13:12,159 --> 00:13:14,840
some of Jake Retslav's games in his start and how

275
00:13:14,919 --> 00:13:18,440
his legs helped the team or how the designed You know,

276
00:13:18,519 --> 00:13:22,159
you have these quick outlet passes or screen passes and

277
00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,600
if they're not there, you take off, and they built

278
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:27,679
in QB draw. The line is blocking QB draw, but

279
00:13:27,759 --> 00:13:30,080
there's quick throws on the edges, and based off of

280
00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,039
the shell and numbers, you either throw the quick pass

281
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,440
or you take off on the draw. That has fit

282
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,000
so well in what Bear is doing because it's what

283
00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,399
Bear has always done, and so I think like you

284
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:43,600
could not have asked for a better scheme fit with

285
00:13:43,759 --> 00:13:47,440
also experienced players around him, Like this is not an

286
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,600
offense that's only been here doing this for a year

287
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,919
or two. What can be tricky is when a new

288
00:13:51,919 --> 00:13:55,440
offensive coordinator is trying to instill his offense in players

289
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,480
that were recruits or that were built by the old system,

290
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,600
the system that has been at UIU for a long time.

291
00:14:02,919 --> 00:14:06,080
The players understand it well, you know, it's just the

292
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,799
timing that's probably the best word, the timing of what

293
00:14:09,919 --> 00:14:13,320
Bear brings. Because of his experience and what this offense

294
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,840
has been building, it came together in the right timing

295
00:14:16,919 --> 00:14:18,519
so well.

Speaker 3: John.

301
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:33,759
Speaker 2: The supporting cast has also buoyed up Bear.

302
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:35,240
Speaker 3: In my opinion, LJ.

303
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,799
Speaker 2: Martin got a little deemed up last this last game

304
00:14:38,919 --> 00:14:40,080
versus Iowa State.

305
00:14:40,759 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 3: LJ.

306
00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:44,320
Speaker 2: Martin exits the game in the first quarter, Yet a

307
00:14:44,559 --> 00:14:48,720
Rod and Bear and the supporting cast that remained found

308
00:14:48,759 --> 00:14:52,679
a way to put up offensively. You know, thirty four points, right,

309
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,840
You had the defensive score that maybe changed the tides,

310
00:14:55,879 --> 00:14:59,039
but this offense was actually very productive, very efficient. What

311
00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,120
does that say about a Rod and his play calling,

312
00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:05,279
ability to have a running back who has essentially been

313
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:09,399
the bell cow back and the core of what this

314
00:15:09,559 --> 00:15:13,519
offense does from an identity standpoint, him ultimately finding a

315
00:15:13,519 --> 00:15:14,519
way to win without him.

316
00:15:15,519 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, it's trust. I feel like this was a

317
00:15:18,799 --> 00:15:21,639
game where they were able to say, Okay, we just

318
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:25,080
lost LJ. We're still going to be able to utilize Bear.

319
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,360
We're going to put Preston back there, a little bit

320
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:31,480
different style of back, but time to do the trust

321
00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:32,960
thing where we're gonna go out there. We're going to

322
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,559
win this game playing the style of football where we're

323
00:15:36,559 --> 00:15:38,720
going to throw it for you know, three hundred plus yards.

324
00:15:38,919 --> 00:15:41,039
We're going to do the things that we have in

325
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,879
our offense that we haven't had to lean on all

326
00:15:43,919 --> 00:15:45,919
of the time. But we're going to lean on him

327
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,240
right now. And I trust that, and and you know what,

328
00:15:48,279 --> 00:15:50,679
and it showed and I know that, like, well, you know, here,

329
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,039
here's what's going to happen. There's also going to be

330
00:15:53,039 --> 00:15:57,080
in the conversation what these teams, like the Iowa States,

331
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,759
you know, I know that for some oh well, Iowa

332
00:15:59,759 --> 00:16:01,919
State went out and lost the next game, maybe they're

333
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,600
not quite the team everybody thought they would at the

334
00:16:04,679 --> 00:16:07,600
end of the day. Playing on the road at Iowa

335
00:16:07,639 --> 00:16:11,000
State has been a tough place for a lot of teams,

336
00:16:11,399 --> 00:16:14,559
and BYU was down early and they had to find

337
00:16:14,559 --> 00:16:16,759
a way to come back and win. You can't take

338
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,600
that away from a team just because of the outcome

339
00:16:19,639 --> 00:16:22,120
of a game the following week. What they did in

340
00:16:22,159 --> 00:16:24,480
that moment of time, how they had to kind of

341
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:27,080
place more on bear shoulders, how a lot of the

342
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,519
guys stepped up and really made a lot of plays

343
00:16:29,519 --> 00:16:32,360
in the past game. That's still what BYU is capable

344
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,519
of doing against any opponent, and it's probably going to

345
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,639
have to show up this Saturday. You know, Texas Tech

346
00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,840
really is a very strong defensive team. They went out

347
00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:44,720
and brought guys in, spent a lot of money, and

348
00:16:44,759 --> 00:16:47,159
they really bolstered their defense. It's going to be a

349
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:50,320
challenge for BYU, but it's going to be great because

350
00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:52,519
these are the types of games that you find out.

351
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:54,919
Are we the type of team that can go out

352
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:58,600
there and win the Big twelve, go into a collegiate

353
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,759
playoff game and win that game. Those type of games

354
00:17:01,799 --> 00:17:04,480
take everything. So if I'm a part of this team,

355
00:17:04,519 --> 00:17:07,359
if I'm on that staff, I'm saying the opportunity that

356
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:09,559
we had to go out and play a game that

357
00:17:10,119 --> 00:17:13,359
second half without LJ and make the plays that we did,

358
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,480
that shows us what we are capable of in those

359
00:17:16,519 --> 00:17:18,960
games where we're gonna need all of the weapons that

360
00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:22,200
we have. Right. I mean, Ben, you remember that conversation

361
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:23,960
we had back in the Bronco era, right when he

362
00:17:24,039 --> 00:17:26,519
had big team meeting about are you using all of

363
00:17:26,559 --> 00:17:27,160
your weapons?

364
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:27,839
Speaker 4: Right?

365
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,400
Speaker 5: When I look at teams, that has always stuck with me.

366
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:32,839
You want to go win big games, you want to

367
00:17:32,839 --> 00:17:35,759
go beat really good teams, you have to be using

368
00:17:35,839 --> 00:17:37,839
all of your weapons. And so to me, that Iowa

369
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,079
State game was a game that BYU got to sharpen

370
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:42,640
some of its other weapons.

371
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love that that perspective. John. A couple last

372
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,319
things before we let you go. LJ.

373
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,240
Speaker 2: Martin's injury to me, now, I'm a physician, but I

374
00:17:51,279 --> 00:17:53,039
work with a lot of physicians, and I stayed at

375
00:17:53,039 --> 00:17:55,319
a holiday in last night. It looked like an ac

376
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:59,680
joint injury, and they pulled them right, so it could

377
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,279
have been something worse. But he wasn't like holding his

378
00:18:03,319 --> 00:18:05,079
shoulder in a way that tells me that it was

379
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,720
like dislocated or whatever. You I know, you've been in

380
00:18:07,759 --> 00:18:10,759
the exercise physiology world. You've taken all of your your

381
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,400
your classes and have your certifications, et cetera. As a

382
00:18:14,759 --> 00:18:19,599
as a biomechanical coach, but also a person that's familiar

383
00:18:19,599 --> 00:18:20,480
with the human anatomy.

384
00:18:21,039 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 3: AC joint separations.

385
00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,559
Speaker 2: To me, grade two, grade three, you have a little

386
00:18:25,559 --> 00:18:27,839
bit of pain there, but you can play through those, right,

387
00:18:27,839 --> 00:18:29,440
those aren't all that serious if it is an AC

388
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:30,319
joint separation.

389
00:18:31,839 --> 00:18:35,319
Speaker 5: I would say players that are non throwers, you can

390
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:38,680
play through AC separations. The impact. You know, they'll shoot

391
00:18:38,759 --> 00:18:40,759
you up to try to numb it as best they

392
00:18:40,799 --> 00:18:44,480
can depending on the grade. Some trainers like to use

393
00:18:44,519 --> 00:18:47,279
also a tape job to kind of help alleviate that

394
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:52,400
distance where that that ligament is is spraying or torn.

395
00:18:53,559 --> 00:18:55,359
You know a lot of the times you can see

396
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:59,160
that clasical kind of like sitting up for a thrower.

397
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,240
This is where it gets. It's interesting. I played through

398
00:19:02,279 --> 00:19:05,000
an AC separation my sophomore year and had to get

399
00:19:05,039 --> 00:19:08,160
shot up for a handful of games. There's different levels.

400
00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:13,039
Some guys they can have very mild AC separations, and

401
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,680
they don't have the same overhead pain. They fill it

402
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,359
a little bit, but some of them have more of

403
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,960
a pain kind of at extension and as if you

404
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:22,799
were to raise your arm in front of your body

405
00:19:23,039 --> 00:19:25,279
and then start to cross to your opposite side, you

406
00:19:25,319 --> 00:19:27,839
can get a little pinching pain there. Those type of

407
00:19:27,839 --> 00:19:29,839
guys can still go out and throw the football at

408
00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:32,880
practice and all they feel is like a little mild

409
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:36,200
that bothers a little bit. Other guys when they separate

410
00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,640
their shoulder Grade two maybe even some like grade ones,

411
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,920
that can be really painful. You can't even get your

412
00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:44,680
shirt on. You're in a lot of pain just trying

413
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,599
to put your arm in a position to get your

414
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,200
shirt on. And so to go out at practice as

415
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:53,000
a thrower, it is super painful. And so, but the

416
00:19:53,039 --> 00:19:55,039
team doesn't want to shoot you up for practice. They

417
00:19:55,079 --> 00:19:56,599
don't want to shoot you up for a game. So

418
00:19:57,079 --> 00:20:00,799
your practice reps really get hindered because if your inability

419
00:20:00,799 --> 00:20:02,720
to throw the ball like you normally do. And so

420
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,920
you know the whole AC separation. I've been around a

421
00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:07,720
lot of receivers, a lot of linemen, a lot of

422
00:20:07,799 --> 00:20:10,559
running backs. Man, they just shoot it up played through it,

423
00:20:10,559 --> 00:20:14,440
they're the same person. Well, practice quarterbacks, that's where you

424
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:17,000
see some of the biggest thing, Like if they're unable

425
00:20:17,039 --> 00:20:19,119
to go out and practice the same way, that has

426
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:21,240
a great effect on the whole team because of what

427
00:20:21,279 --> 00:20:23,319
practice looks like. And then they go out in games

428
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,039
and I remember the first time I got shot up,

429
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:28,319
I was like, what in the world. I feel like

430
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:31,240
I have noodle arm and I'm trying to like be

431
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,799
accurate in a pregame warm up and the coach is like, hey,

432
00:20:33,839 --> 00:20:36,559
how you feeling well? I have the ability to move

433
00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,359
my arm now, but man, it's just tough. I'm not

434
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,079
really accurate. And so that's the kind of the balance

435
00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:47,200
between throwers and non throwers of AC's. Everybody is capable

436
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,039
of playing through an AC because you're gonna get it

437
00:20:50,079 --> 00:20:53,200
shot up, but there is an impact whether you're a

438
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,519
thrower or non thrower throughout the week of.

439
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 2: Practice BYU's offense is going to have to continue to

440
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:03,720
put up points. Texas Tech knows knows how to score

441
00:21:03,759 --> 00:21:08,319
points offensively sixty seven, sixty two, forty five, thirty four,

442
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,799
thirty five, forty two. Their lowest was twenty two on

443
00:21:11,839 --> 00:21:13,839
the road versus ASU and that loss, but it was

444
00:21:13,839 --> 00:21:16,839
only a four point game. They beat Oklahoma State forty

445
00:21:16,839 --> 00:21:18,759
two to zero, and then they just beat Kansas State

446
00:21:18,839 --> 00:21:23,400
forty three to twenty. Can this BYU offense keep pace

447
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,039
with this Texas Tech Red Raiders offense?

448
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 3: Is the question?

449
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,279
Speaker 5: Well, I'm really excited to see what our defense does.

450
00:21:31,319 --> 00:21:34,200
I know that that was kind of an offensive question

451
00:21:34,319 --> 00:21:37,200
about the offense, what they're capable of doing. You know,

452
00:21:37,279 --> 00:21:38,920
I think so much of it is going to be

453
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,720
what our defense is going to do to that offense.

454
00:21:41,759 --> 00:21:44,039
You know, this is an interesting case because Texas Tech

455
00:21:44,079 --> 00:21:47,200
started the season with one quarterback, going back to that

456
00:21:47,279 --> 00:21:49,640
ASU game. I actually think that when they kind of

457
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,279
came out the gates rolling a little bit, I wonder

458
00:21:52,319 --> 00:21:54,240
if they were believing a little bit of maybe their

459
00:21:54,279 --> 00:21:57,000
own press of like, man, we are a really good team.

460
00:21:57,039 --> 00:21:59,559
Look we're just steamrolling right now. In the beginning of

461
00:21:59,599 --> 00:22:01,799
the game, Arizona State team that won the Big Twelve

462
00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,519
last year, and then the tides turned. But then they

463
00:22:04,559 --> 00:22:07,920
lose their quarterback. The backup steps in plays and now

464
00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,440
he's injured. They go back to their quarterback, and if

465
00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,200
my memory is right, I didn't get to see the

466
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,400
entire Kansas State game. I got to catch parts of

467
00:22:15,440 --> 00:22:18,240
it here there between my kids' games, But I don't

468
00:22:18,279 --> 00:22:20,640
think it was a smooth road the entire time. There

469
00:22:20,680 --> 00:22:22,440
was a time in the game where it was very

470
00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:25,160
tight versus Kansas State, and Texas Tech was having a

471
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,920
little bit of a tough time offensively to be consistent,

472
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:31,960
and then because of some turnovers, Like I'm pretty sure

473
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,440
there was a couple turnovers in that game that really

474
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,160
turned things in Kansas State then kind of fell apart

475
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:39,880
a little bit and Texas Tech ran away with it.

476
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:43,480
But I'm really curious what is our BIU defense going

477
00:22:43,559 --> 00:22:46,480
to look like against a team and now a quarterback

478
00:22:46,519 --> 00:22:49,400
that is in his second start coming back from the injury.

479
00:22:49,839 --> 00:22:53,160
Time off for quarterbacks sometimes can be good and sometimes

480
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,279
can be really difficult when you get thrust back into it.

481
00:22:55,319 --> 00:22:57,240
So I think so much of this how I'm going

482
00:22:57,279 --> 00:23:00,160
to answer the question offensively, I think so much much

483
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,200
of what our offense is going to look like will

484
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:05,000
be dictated by what our defense is doing and how

485
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,440
they're handling the Texas Tech offense. Because there may be

486
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:12,359
some schematic things where you can say our ability to

487
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:16,680
potentially run the football well with LJ and Bear and

488
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,680
the other running backs. If we can run the ball well,

489
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:22,440
that keeps their offense off of the field, and there

490
00:23:22,519 --> 00:23:25,680
could be a time of possession game going on if

491
00:23:25,759 --> 00:23:28,799
BYU's defense is doing a really, really good job. And

492
00:23:28,839 --> 00:23:31,720
so to me, like as a play caller, so much

493
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:33,599
of how you call a game is dependent on the

494
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,920
other phases as well. Special teams to me, special teams.

495
00:23:46,559 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 2: All right, sounds like we may have lost John, But

496
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:50,640

00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:09,559
I think the last thing that he was saying is

504
00:24:09,599 --> 00:24:12,559
intriguing to me, though he's more intrigued by what the

505
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:17,400
defense can do to steymy that prolific Texas Tech red

506
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:21,160
Raider offense. And I was looking at sp plus rankings

507
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:25,680
and efficiency metrics here. They were published yesterday Texas Tech

508
00:24:25,839 --> 00:24:30,319
offense ranks ninth in the country, their defense is eighth,

509
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:35,279
and their special teams is eightieth. Interesting, you heard John

510
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:36,440
say special teams.

511
00:24:36,519 --> 00:24:36,720
Speaker 3: Right.

512
00:24:37,079 --> 00:24:42,599
Speaker 2: BYU's offense is twenty fifth in the nation, sixteenth on defense,

513
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:48,079
and then number six on special teams. What has BYU

514
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:54,519
done so effectively this season? Complementary football, finding a way

515
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:59,480
to win games in a I would say a traditional

516
00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:04,240
football since then, even an untraditional football, since complimentary football

517
00:25:04,279 --> 00:25:06,079
has always been a part of the game. We tend

518
00:25:06,079 --> 00:25:10,759
to focus so much on offense, sometimes defense, but never

519
00:25:11,279 --> 00:25:15,359
the special teams unit. BYU's special teams unit has been

520
00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:20,960
a lead under Kelly Papinga. Also, Jay Hill was an

521
00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,200
elite special teams coach once upon a time before becoming

522
00:25:24,599 --> 00:25:29,519
a head coach at Weaver State, so he oversees some

523
00:25:29,559 --> 00:25:31,279
of that special teams as well.

524
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,119
Speaker 3: That could be the differentiator.

525
00:25:33,319 --> 00:25:37,279
Speaker 2: That's the same thing or the same reasons why by

526
00:25:37,319 --> 00:25:41,519
you found a way to win versus Utah a few

527
00:25:41,559 --> 00:25:45,640
weeks ago. It was through special teams and I'd say,

528
00:25:46,079 --> 00:25:50,039
just complimentary football. Guys, great segment. We're gonna take a

Speaker 4: Hey, what's up? Man?

564
00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:17,799
Speaker 1: Yeah?

565
00:27:17,839 --> 00:27:21,039
Speaker 4: That's I mean something when you're forty six, you know so, yeah,

566
00:27:21,079 --> 00:27:21,920
that's pretty exciting.

567
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,720
Speaker 2: Do you think you could play and start at a

568
00:27:25,759 --> 00:27:30,000
college football Like, let's say eligibility was available to you

569
00:27:30,039 --> 00:27:33,559
and you could play college football, make a little nil money,

570
00:27:33,559 --> 00:27:35,759
maybe they pay you, you know, I don't know, I

571
00:27:35,759 --> 00:27:38,279
don't know what you know what what level of performance

572
00:27:38,319 --> 00:27:40,559
you'd be at, But I mean, judging by your your

573
00:27:40,599 --> 00:27:43,759
speed and your jumping ability, I feel like bepop could

574
00:27:43,799 --> 00:27:46,759
give you ten to twenty maybe thirty reps on defense

575
00:27:47,079 --> 00:27:50,440
a game. Could you start for a Division one fbs

576
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:51,799
P four program right now?

577
00:27:54,039 --> 00:27:57,880
Speaker 4: What a fun thing to imagine, right, Your body when

578
00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:01,160
I'm here is like health, the state I don't have,

579
00:28:01,319 --> 00:28:04,559
like any bumps and bruises or any strains that I'm

580
00:28:04,599 --> 00:28:06,920
having to fight through. You know, I think I could

581
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,720
do anything right, But reality is is I'm not sure

582
00:28:10,759 --> 00:28:11,680
my neck would hold up.

583
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:11,880
Speaker 3: Bro.

584
00:28:13,319 --> 00:28:15,839
Speaker 4: You know, my big thing is dudes in the face.

585
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,079
That was what I did. That's you know, got me

586
00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,279
my name Hammerhead. And you know, I'm not sure the

587
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:24,400
neck has got enough cartilage in there to handle thirty

588
00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,119
players in college football.

589
00:28:26,839 --> 00:28:30,799
Speaker 2: You know, but uh uh, you just had to speed rush.

590
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,599
It was all only passing situations.

591
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:36,839
Speaker 4: Then that then that you know, puts puts stress in

592
00:28:36,839 --> 00:28:39,200
the whole other parts of your body such as your

593
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,200
akillies and you know, your knees and you know all

594
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,880
that kind of stuff. So it's all like it's all

595
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:48,079
it all seems really fun when you're just training, but

596
00:28:48,160 --> 00:28:51,559
in reality, the playing the torque, the wear and tear

597
00:28:51,599 --> 00:28:54,279
you go through is so much more than just training.

598
00:28:54,359 --> 00:28:57,599
You know, it's a whole other level of pushing your body,

599
00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,480
and you know, at forty six, I don't even want

600
00:28:59,519 --> 00:29:01,039
to find that out because I don't want to go

601
00:29:01,079 --> 00:29:03,519
to a training room. You know, I don't want to

602
00:29:03,559 --> 00:29:05,839
be in rehab, bro, So I don't even think I

603
00:29:06,119 --> 00:29:07,799
would prefer not even to think about it. As a

604
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,319
matter of fact, Dude, I did my thing, man. I

605
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:15,640
took that sponge and I freaking rung that sponge out

606
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:19,000
and drained it for every last drop possible.

607
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 3: I love it.

608
00:29:19,680 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 4: That's why I don't have any problems. They I'll never

609
00:29:22,079 --> 00:29:24,279
go back, Dude. I laid it all out there, give

610
00:29:24,359 --> 00:29:29,119
up base yels, gave up times, my family, fingers, tans, bones,

611
00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:32,319
brain cells, gave it all, gave it all, man, and

612
00:29:32,359 --> 00:29:33,119
I got all back.

613
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 5: You know.

614
00:29:33,519 --> 00:29:36,039
Speaker 4: So I'm at peace. But I don't need to do

615
00:29:36,079 --> 00:29:38,599
anything I can. I'm more than happy to impart my

616
00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,240
wisdom on anybody willing to listen. But outside of that, yeah,

617
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:42,559
I'm that's as far as it goes.

618
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:45,599
Speaker 2: No regrets, Love it, Brady. What's the health like of

619
00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,759
this BYU football team? Do you think heading into Texas Tech?

620
00:29:48,839 --> 00:29:51,480
I feel like the bye we couldn't have come at

621
00:29:51,519 --> 00:29:53,480
a better time for BYU.

622
00:29:55,039 --> 00:29:57,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I mean this is where your depth is tested,

623
00:29:57,839 --> 00:29:59,400
you know, and I think every team is going to

624
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,480
go go going through it in some way. Every guy

625
00:30:01,599 --> 00:30:05,079
is gonna who's played significant minutes has got something uncomfortable.

626
00:30:05,119 --> 00:30:07,200
They're gonna have to deal with. The One thing that

627
00:30:07,279 --> 00:30:09,480
I'm excited to see if it pans out this way,

628
00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:12,279
I'm not sure it will, is to see these young guys.

629
00:30:12,279 --> 00:30:14,359
Now we have We've seen flashes of guys come in,

630
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,920
you know, h on the defensive side of the ball

631
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,720
with our with Isaiah and and Jack having to kind

632
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,640
of deal with their ailements. You know, you've seen Kafushi

633
00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:25,559
come in to play well all all they're come in

634
00:30:25,599 --> 00:30:29,279
and play well. I offered, excuse me, number thirty, come

635
00:30:29,319 --> 00:30:33,200
in and play well. We've had, you know, offensively in

636
00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,559
the backfield. You know, we we got to you know,

637
00:30:35,599 --> 00:30:37,920
Preston's come in and as a as a streaker, you know,

638
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,480
inside guy who's kind of your change up fly, sweet

639
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,759
kind of guy has showed out well as from his

640
00:30:42,799 --> 00:30:46,200
conversion to City. I think we got some really good

641
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,839
depth in addition to see ony Moa and some of

642
00:30:49,839 --> 00:30:52,839
the other guys that have played that haven't have got

643
00:30:52,839 --> 00:30:54,640
no little reps. I mean, I'm really intrigued to see

644
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,279
what the Mooney can do. You know, if given the opportunity,

645
00:30:57,319 --> 00:31:00,000
I think he run. He hits the whole hard. Uh

646
00:31:00,039 --> 00:31:02,200
he's a little smaller guy, but how hard he hits

647
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:03,680
it to me is great. Just he needs to keep

648
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:05,200
two hands on the ball, that's it. I mean, he

649
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,079
fumbled against West Virginia, but I thought he had two

650
00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,079
really good runs against them. And then you got, you know,

651
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,799
some other guys like you know, the pain kid. You know,

652
00:31:15,319 --> 00:31:17,880
I think his logan paint his name. Who's a red

653
00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:22,000
shirt freshman, bigger build, smaller, stubby running back, which you know,

654
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:24,799
whenever I played against running backs that were short and study,

655
00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,759
they were not easy to bring down. You know, the

656
00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,240
hide behind the offensive line, and they have enough toughness

657
00:31:29,279 --> 00:31:32,559
and explosiveness to hit that gap. And you get. The

658
00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:35,799
thing that we can't forget either, is our our blocking

659
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,880
scheme is a zone blocking scheme that makes it to

660
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,519
where we actually have one of the greater, more vast

661
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,880
reaches of talent that can play in that scheme, which

662
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:48,119
has been proven through the NFL over and over again.

663
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:52,200
You know, the Shanahans made that popular. You know with

664
00:31:52,359 --> 00:31:55,640
their basically rolodex of running backs rushing for a thousand

665
00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:58,200
yards that they either drafted late in the draft or

666
00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,119
didn't even draft at all. And so we have that

667
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:02,799
same kind of scheme, and then on top of it,

668
00:32:02,799 --> 00:32:06,440
we have a legit passing scheme that can also create

669
00:32:06,519 --> 00:32:09,039
a lot of imbalances and keep it events honest and

670
00:32:09,039 --> 00:32:12,400
help our running game thrive. You know, so I'm excited.

671
00:32:13,279 --> 00:32:15,519
To me, it's all about depth. Of course, you want

672
00:32:15,559 --> 00:32:17,599
the guys that are your your bell cows and your

673
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,359
your studs and your dominators to come back and participate

674
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:23,640
and do what they can. But you can't really rush

675
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:25,720
them back either. You know. You gotta go according to

676
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:29,240
their body clock, into their to their health. But this

677
00:32:29,359 --> 00:32:31,440
is why we've built the team, this is why Harvey

678
00:32:31,519 --> 00:32:34,799
Ungdah and all the other coaches have developed these young guys,

679
00:32:34,799 --> 00:32:36,799
is to get them out there and have them be productive,

680
00:32:36,799 --> 00:32:39,279
which I have really mixed. I mean, I've seen these

681
00:32:39,279 --> 00:32:41,599
guys in practice. I have confidence they can go in

682
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,599
there and they can play well and help us win

683
00:32:43,599 --> 00:32:46,240
football games. And that's that's what Klane and his staff

684
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:47,839
has built over the years.

685
00:32:48,839 --> 00:32:53,279
Speaker 2: Brady, this Uh, this BYU Football team is going against

686
00:32:53,759 --> 00:32:56,759
arguably their toughest foe in Texas Tech. Estics Tech has

687
00:32:56,839 --> 00:32:59,039
one loss. It was on the road. It was a

688
00:32:59,039 --> 00:33:04,039
one score game to ASU. Every other game they've won

689
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:08,720
by I believe, in average of thirty four points. The

690
00:33:08,839 --> 00:33:14,559
closest margin was eighteen points versus Houston. They've been dominant

691
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:17,480
in their wins, be it on the road or at home.

692
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:21,119
How can BYU keep up? What's bo's competitive advantage do

693
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:22,000
you think in this game?

694
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,119
Speaker 4: Well, the first thing is you have to give Texas

695
00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,279
Tech credit. You know, they've built a really balanced team.

696
00:33:29,519 --> 00:33:32,720
Their defensive line is as physical as a defensive front

697
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:35,440
in our conference. Maybe in college football. They're right up

698
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:40,039
there with our guys. They're almost immovable. Their edge guys

699
00:33:40,039 --> 00:33:42,359
are the two best edge guys number nine to thirty

700
00:33:42,359 --> 00:33:46,480
one in the country, the tandem. I mean, they are streakers.

701
00:33:46,799 --> 00:33:48,640
If you watch the Arizona State game over thirty one,

702
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,680
ye had two sacks right back to the back, and

703
00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:52,680
then they're like, oops, we better stop blocking this guy

704
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:54,759
one on one. We better start chipping in keeping tight

705
00:33:54,839 --> 00:33:56,920
ends on them. You know, we better start kind of

706
00:33:56,960 --> 00:34:00,960
like handling ourselves. So all of a sudden, you know,

707
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,960
We're in a situation where you know you're facing the

708
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:06,960
team that has power, they have speed, and then you

709
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:09,599
know they've got weapons on the outside. Offensively, they're tall, long,

710
00:34:09,840 --> 00:34:12,360
they got a running back and twenty that can just

711
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:14,679
hit a home run any play. If you saw him

712
00:34:14,679 --> 00:34:17,320
against Kansas State, I mean, he was a nightmare out

713
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:18,920
on the edges. And then you have number eight who

714
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,639
comes in as a nice compliment with the straight forward

715
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,920
power running style that's boring in between the tackles. So

716
00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:26,800
they check all their boxes. The only real question mark

717
00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:28,400
is I just don't know about the quarterback. You know

718
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:32,639
they've had these quarterbacks in and out, but the reality

719
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,119
is is that you know they've they've played well enough to,

720
00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:40,199
like you said, control games and win running away. And

721
00:34:40,239 --> 00:34:42,039
so they're a talented team. The biggest thing that we

722
00:34:42,159 --> 00:34:43,880
have to do is first you have to understand that

723
00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,159
we're just as talented across the board as they are.

724
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:51,480
We're talented in different ways. The second thing is as

725
00:34:51,559 --> 00:34:53,840
understanding that in any of these games, and I think

726
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:56,599
our team has understand it as well. Like against Utah,

727
00:34:56,599 --> 00:34:59,000
I think as a fair one last week, and I

728
00:34:59,039 --> 00:35:01,840
always stay in even at Arizona, I thought were three

729
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,960
games where we understood that their talent level is as

730
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:06,880
good as ours, and the way you win is you've

731
00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:10,239
got to be clean in your execution. Because as soon

732
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:12,800
as we cleaned up our execution versus all those teams,

733
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:15,679
it became a game of execution and we won out.

734
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:17,559
And that's what I think this game is going to

735
00:35:17,559 --> 00:35:20,719
come down to. As we stay tight and don't lose

736
00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:23,239
our minds the first part of the game, because it's

737
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:25,480
such a high game and you're playing Texas Tech and

738
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:28,039
blah blah blah blah blah. If everybody can keep their

739
00:35:28,079 --> 00:35:31,480
minds and have their wherewithal and just focus on execution,

740
00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:33,800
I think we'll be in a good place because that's

741
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:35,480
what it comes down. You've got to be able to execute,

742
00:35:35,559 --> 00:35:37,280
and you've got to be able to execute the cleanest,

743
00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,119
and that generally is the determining factor when talent is

744
00:35:40,159 --> 00:35:41,920
equal of who comes out on top.

745
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 3: LJ.

746
00:35:43,119 --> 00:35:45,599
Speaker 2: Martin is listing on the depth chart. I imagine he's

747
00:35:45,639 --> 00:35:48,239
going to be available to play versus Texas Tech, and

748
00:35:48,639 --> 00:35:53,559
the shoulder injury he sustained versus Iowa State is not

749
00:35:53,679 --> 00:35:57,320
as serious as some may have thought. That's a big

750
00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,880
boon for by you getting LJ back this week.

751
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:03,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, but I think you always have to, like

752
00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:07,119
I said, be willing to relign your depth, especially there, don't.

753
00:36:07,119 --> 00:36:10,880
I don't. I don't think it's fair to the staff,

754
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:14,239
to the younger guys to just say LJ, we're riding

755
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:15,840
or dying with him, which I don't think the team

756
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,000
thinks that way. Obviously, last week in there or the

757
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,000
week before Againside the State, it kind of worked out

758
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,559
that way because they only had so many guys up

759
00:36:23,639 --> 00:36:25,760
righty to play in that game. Based off of who's

760
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:27,719
traveling and you know who they're trying to render those

761
00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,760
kinds of things. Now, I'm sure this week changes, but

762
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,400
LJ is not. I mean, okay, let me get this.

763
00:36:33,599 --> 00:36:37,320
LJ is really good, phenomenal. What makes a running game go, though,

764
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:39,760
is always the offensive line. And that's what I'm most

765
00:36:39,760 --> 00:36:42,480
excited about. And that's why the fact is their offensive

766
00:36:42,519 --> 00:36:46,239
line is intact. Uh, there's consistency there. We have the

767
00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,239
same guys playing week in and week out, so they're

768
00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:50,639
they're cohesive, and I do believe you get a guy

769
00:36:50,639 --> 00:36:53,639
who could run hard behind them one cut, you know,

770
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,280
Roderick's gonna scheme them up. Regardless of who's in there,

771
00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:58,039
They're gonna play to their strengths and they're gonna scheme

772
00:36:58,119 --> 00:36:59,960
up this scheme to where we're gonna be able to

773
00:37:00,039 --> 00:37:01,920
on the ball. Uh, that's who we are. And then

774
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,440
when you have a quarterback who can run the ball

775
00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:06,880
also and then throw it, that also opens up alleys

776
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,719
and and holes in the running game. So I think

777
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:11,880
a running game with or without MJ is still going

778
00:37:11,920 --> 00:37:13,760
to be really good. Obviously with him he had. He

779
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:18,000
adds this level of physicality and talent and physical raw

780
00:37:18,039 --> 00:37:21,559
ability that most guys don't have, which is always a bonus.

781
00:37:22,039 --> 00:37:25,360
But I don't think it's so hinging on him being

782
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,239
available that we just all of a sudden can't run

783
00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,320
the ball. If we can't run the ball, usually it'll

784
00:37:29,320 --> 00:37:34,760
come down to execution. Uh, missed targets, you know, poor vision,

785
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,679
you know things that basically like we can control. Because

786
00:37:38,280 --> 00:37:40,800
we can execute, we can find holes against this defense.

787
00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:42,960
I promise you. That's what we saw with Kansas State.

788
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,840
We've seen it with all teams, even Utah. You know

789
00:37:45,880 --> 00:37:48,360
their their biggest problem is is Dan Pire was unhealthy.

790
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:50,719
He had a he had this right ankle injury which

791
00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:52,280
he's been dealing with all year and he just hasn't

792
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,800
been able to run the same. So we really haven't

793
00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:58,000
seen up until last week in Kansas State. But you know,

794
00:37:58,079 --> 00:38:01,960
Pansas State quarterback, it's more of a slasher. He's not

795
00:38:02,039 --> 00:38:05,280
really a power quarterback. But they've never really seen a

796
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,239
power offense, power running offense like ours with a quarterback

797
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,159
that can also run power football, you know, So it'll

798
00:38:11,199 --> 00:38:12,679
be interesting to test him in that way and see

799
00:38:12,719 --> 00:38:13,440
how they'll respond.

800
00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:18,159
Speaker 2: Pretty papinga here on ESPN the Fan discussing little college football,

801
00:38:18,159 --> 00:38:21,800
Little BAYU football as they prep for Texas Tech. The

802
00:38:22,960 --> 00:38:27,119
path to the Big twelve championship is before BYU, they

803
00:38:27,159 --> 00:38:29,599
got Texas Tech. You got to focus one game at

804
00:38:29,599 --> 00:38:33,119
a time, obviously, and then you have some other difficult

805
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:37,400
foes on the schedule. Cincinnati on the road, TCU at home,

806
00:38:37,519 --> 00:38:39,159
UCF at home.

807
00:38:40,920 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 3: I think A Rod dubbed this.

808
00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:45,559
Speaker 2: Back end of the schedule starting with U of A

809
00:38:45,599 --> 00:38:48,559
is the most difficult stretch of games in BWAU football history.

810
00:38:48,599 --> 00:38:51,360
I think the only other stretch of games I would

811
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,840
say that could be deemed as more difficult was when

812
00:38:54,880 --> 00:38:58,039
you played in two thousand and four. You guys, had

813
00:38:58,079 --> 00:39:02,199
like Notre Dame and Boise State and USC the national champion,

814
00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,360
And what do you recall about that stretch and what

815
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:07,159
type of toll did that take on your team?

816
00:39:08,599 --> 00:39:10,360
Speaker 4: Well, I remember we had Utah at the end of

817
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:12,599
the year who was as good and better than USC,

818
00:39:13,119 --> 00:39:14,800
and USC was looked at as one of the best

819
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,480
college football teams ever, which that was obviously hyped up.

820
00:39:17,519 --> 00:39:21,199
But the reality is is that we're equipped for it now.

821
00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:26,239
When we played we did not have the talent the

822
00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:29,679
BYU have today. We didn't have the depth and that

823
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,440
was very evident in all of those games as you

824
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:35,440
know where you're trying to, you know, muscle ourselves through

825
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:39,119
those But the reality is is like, yeah, it's it is.

826
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:41,559
Roderic is correct, it's the herd. I would say this

827
00:39:41,599 --> 00:39:43,920
is the hardest stretch in the history of Bulia football. Buck.

828
00:39:44,440 --> 00:39:48,800
We're also the most talented, best coach team in the

829
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,719
history of football right now. And that's not taking anything

830
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:54,559
away from the past. We're just talking about the whole

831
00:39:54,639 --> 00:39:56,960
new set of resources that sets the standard at a

832
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,559
completely different level where you're able to pay your best coaches,

833
00:40:00,039 --> 00:40:02,800
pay to get your best players, and that just makes

834
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,280
it to where you can get the best talent and

835
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:06,960
the best coaching. So we're ready. I mean, we're equipped

836
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:08,920
to go through and be fine. I don't see any

837
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:11,199
problem with this. We're right where we want to be.

838
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,599
Like I said, it comes down to execution, comes down

839
00:40:14,639 --> 00:40:17,199
to playing clean, and that's this is how you play.

840
00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:20,280
When you're at a level of football where everybody's talent

841
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:24,440
is basically equal. The differentiator comes down to being clean

842
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:27,519
and how you play. And that's why I like our

843
00:40:27,559 --> 00:40:30,159
guys in these situations. That's what we have with YU

844
00:40:30,159 --> 00:40:31,559
And you got to give the coaching staff a lot

845
00:40:31,599 --> 00:40:32,960
of credit. You got to give the players a lot

846
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:36,159
of credit for learning these schemes. But when we play clean,

847
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,719
it doesn't matter who we face. We are really really

848
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:39,159
hard to be.

849
00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:44,679
Speaker 2: One of the differentiators in many of these games has

850
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,920
been special teams. I was looking at the analytics and

851
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:53,360
once again, BYU has a significant competitive advantage and efficiency

852
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,880
metrics on the special teams. By US ranked six in

853
00:40:56,920 --> 00:41:00,400
the country, Texas tak eightieth in the country. You know

854
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:03,559
how will be while you maybe navigate that competitive advantage,

855
00:41:03,559 --> 00:41:05,320
where do you see that playing out?

856
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:08,400
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I mean it plays out in field position

857
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:12,639
it plays out in potential fake punts. You know, there's

858
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:15,920
there's a lot of you know, fake kicks. You know,

859
00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:17,920
Kelly does a nice job too of mixing in a

860
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,599
lot of different style of kickoffs. We saw that against

861
00:41:22,199 --> 00:41:24,519
I think it was Utah where they did like kind

862
00:41:24,519 --> 00:41:26,039
of that squid and they almost go Maybe it was

863
00:41:26,039 --> 00:41:29,239
against the team before where they got they squibbed it

864
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:33,239
just kind of knowing that the team that they're facing

865
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:35,639
wasn't ever going to run back a kickoff, trying to

866
00:41:35,679 --> 00:41:38,480
force them to to to run one back and they

867
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,239
almost got the fumble recovery and they pinned them inside

868
00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:43,159
the twenty five. You know, so there's there's all these

869
00:41:43,199 --> 00:41:46,800
nuances that Kelly does. It's really nice. But overall, I

870
00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:50,159
think what special teams does our school at BYU is

871
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:54,000
they energize the team. You know, they got starters playing

872
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:55,679
on the team, but you just got guys that are

873
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:59,159
just selling out. Guys see that. They respond to that

874
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:01,480
kind of energy, and it kind of trickles to all

875
00:42:01,519 --> 00:42:04,199
the other units offensive and defensively because they're all mixed

876
00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:06,199
with offense and the defensive guy. So it kind of

877
00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:09,000
stirs the pot, so to speak. So it's a. It's

878
00:42:09,039 --> 00:42:11,239
an important part of what we do. And Kelly and

879
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:13,920
Kwani and their coaching staff, Jay's involved in this heavily

880
00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,239
also knows that, and they come into every game ready

881
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:20,679
and prepared to call fakes at the most darnest times. Man.

882
00:42:21,199 --> 00:42:23,159
And I will give us a little inside information to

883
00:42:23,199 --> 00:42:25,480
people right here. I want everybody to know that. Kelly

884
00:42:25,519 --> 00:42:27,159
will and I'm not going to tell you the circumstances,

885
00:42:27,159 --> 00:42:29,519
but Kelly will say to me, Brady, on this circumstance,

886
00:42:29,639 --> 00:42:31,679
we were gonna call a fake and I decided not to.

887
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:35,159
And I'm like, Kelly, you're scaring me. Man, You're just

888
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:37,599
scared me. But if you look at his you know,

889
00:42:37,679 --> 00:42:40,920
his his rate of fake successes, you're like, I get,

890
00:42:40,960 --> 00:42:42,880
I get why he's like so confident.

891
00:42:43,079 --> 00:42:45,199
Speaker 3: Well, very killan.

892
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,639
Speaker 2: He's one of the most aggressive fourth down play callers

893
00:42:48,679 --> 00:42:52,199
in the country since twenty sixteen. Like, I don't know

894
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:54,079
if he goes forward on fourth down more than anybody,

895
00:42:54,159 --> 00:42:55,199
but he's got to be up there.

896
00:42:56,800 --> 00:42:59,199
Speaker 4: Oh yeah. But the thing is that they don't just

897
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,440
do that out of haste. You know, they're not just

898
00:43:02,599 --> 00:43:05,199
throwing yeah, let's just do it. They have a whole

899
00:43:05,199 --> 00:43:07,320
analytics that they go with and they base it off

900
00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:09,960
of that, and they have also a field. But the

901
00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,880
most part they're they're just looking at indicators. You know,

902
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:16,119
they're playing the game of the percentages more than playing

903
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,039
what tradition says, Oh, we're at the forty nine and

904
00:43:20,079 --> 00:43:23,239
it's fourth and one. Okay, let's pump the ball. I mean, member,

905
00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:24,800
that used to be kind of the thing back in

906
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,280
the day. Now if you look at the analytics, it's like, no,

907
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:30,960
you should go for it, because the upside far out

908
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,480
weighs the downside to the point where, yeah, even the

909
00:43:33,519 --> 00:43:36,800
worst thing that possibly could happen still isn't that bad

910
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:39,599
considering what could be earned if you got that one yard.

911
00:43:39,599 --> 00:43:41,960
And then you got to figure, well, how confident are

912
00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,199
we and getting a yard? You know what, It's like,

913
00:43:45,039 --> 00:43:47,360
we should be confident. If not, we shouldn't even you know,

914
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:49,039
feel like we should win the game in some ways,

915
00:43:49,079 --> 00:43:52,239
you know. And so yeah, I mean it's a completely

916
00:43:52,239 --> 00:43:54,519
different level to have a completely different feel. But yeah,

917
00:43:54,519 --> 00:43:56,679
he was like, when Kelly was talking like that, I'm like, man,

918
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:59,440
you're scaring me. But at the same time, I was like, dude,

919
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:00,000
I like him.

920
00:44:00,039 --> 00:44:00,159
Speaker 5: You know.

921
00:44:00,199 --> 00:44:01,880
Speaker 4: In my head, I was like, I didn't say anything

922
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:03,559
about it, but I was just like, I like it though,

923
00:44:03,559 --> 00:44:07,840
because he doesn't allow tradition, and the clanies the same way.

924
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:11,159
They don't allow tradition to play a part into their

925
00:44:11,599 --> 00:44:14,840
analytical decisions. They just go with the numbers and with

926
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,239
what their indicators are, and they're disciplined to that. So

927
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:19,719
that's why I was like, from a Texas tech perspective,

928
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,800
or any opponent of BIU from a special team standpoint,

929
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:28,199
you better spend time practicing every punt, fake punt you

930
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:31,920
can imagine, every fake, little on site nuanced kick you

931
00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:35,559
can imagine. You got to be able to you know, reverses.

932
00:44:35,639 --> 00:44:38,800
They have these cool little plays and their return game.

933
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:41,599
They're really difficult. And then at the same time you

934
00:44:41,639 --> 00:44:44,760
have to be smart with yourself scouting and not overload

935
00:44:44,840 --> 00:44:48,199
yourself to where you're susceptible. I mean it, it creates nightmares,

936
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,199
and that might be another advantage. They just teams probably

937
00:44:51,199 --> 00:44:53,960
either have to spend more time on special teams or

938
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,159
they have to spend more mental energy worrying about fakes

939
00:44:57,199 --> 00:45:00,519
that maybe potentially can take away from other areas that

940
00:45:00,519 --> 00:45:01,679
they otherwise would be preparing.

941
00:45:01,679 --> 00:45:05,239
Speaker 2: At this BAU Texas Tech game got a little bit

942
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:10,079
nasty when the last time they played at Lavelle Edwards Stadium,

943
00:45:10,679 --> 00:45:12,440
there was a lot of spit going on.

944
00:45:12,519 --> 00:45:13,119
Speaker 3: Do you remember this.

945
00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:17,440
Speaker 2: They're the Texas Tech football players were spitting on Bau's play.

946
00:45:17,559 --> 00:45:19,880
Speaker 3: Finally they they got called for it. I think.

947
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:24,639
Speaker 4: Bad though. I think it's just some of the guys.

948
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:26,760
You know, I remember when I played, you had a

949
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:29,320
couple of guys that were go unhinged and they kind

950
00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,760
of lose their minds and you're like, what the heck?

951
00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:34,599
That really escalated from zero to one hundred bots an

952
00:45:34,599 --> 00:45:36,320
hour in a second. And usually those guys are not

953
00:45:36,519 --> 00:45:39,239
playing any longer because you have to have some poise

954
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:40,920
about you. But no, I don't think there was any

955
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:45,159
anything personal. You know, there was nothing that was like,

956
00:45:46,159 --> 00:45:49,119
you know, uh to where it was like on the

957
00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:52,000
verge of fights. I thought it was overall respectful except

958
00:45:52,559 --> 00:45:54,559
those isolated incidences, you know what I'm saying, Like, I

959
00:45:54,599 --> 00:45:57,960
don't think it was really that big a deal outside

960
00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:00,239
of the spit flying. And like I said, I was

961
00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:02,440
one guy and he was immediately removed from the game

962
00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:04,840
by his coach. He didn't even see the field after that.

963
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,159
It's kind of sad for him. But but I was

964
00:46:07,159 --> 00:46:08,440
at the game. I was on the sideline. That was

965
00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:10,079
one of my first games that I've come to as

966
00:46:10,119 --> 00:46:14,519
an embedded between quotations guy with YU and and you know, Texas,

967
00:46:14,559 --> 00:46:17,000
tex got playmakers. Man, they got guys, and they're even

968
00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:18,719
better now, you know, so they're a good team.

969
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 2: Crazy times in college football? What do you make of

970
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,760
all the cannibalism going on as well? Big ten sec

971
00:46:27,039 --> 00:46:32,039
acc everybody seems they've they've got like two losses or

972
00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,280
maybe an embarrassing one loss to a team that they

973
00:46:35,519 --> 00:46:38,039
probably you know, purportedly shouldn't have lost to.

974
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:39,880
Speaker 3: What do you make of it?

975
00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:43,639
Speaker 4: Well, there's just more and more parody, you know what

976
00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:46,079
I mean. The biggest indicator is that we have Nick

977
00:46:46,119 --> 00:46:50,079
Saban no longer coaching. I don't think people really know

978
00:46:50,159 --> 00:46:53,360
Nick Saban's story in the NFL, but his story in

979
00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:56,639
the NFL in two thousand and five or six, No,

980
00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:59,760
two thousand and five, it is my rookie year, was

981
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:03,840
that he couldn't be an authoritative person in the NFL.

982
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,639
He actually had to be somebody who decided to, hey,

983
00:47:07,679 --> 00:47:10,920
I gotta coach with these guys, and I gotta, I gotta,

984
00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,599
I gotta build a culture that allows for guys to

985
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:16,480
like want to actually come here and want to actually

986
00:47:16,519 --> 00:47:20,440
play here, even if I'm coaching him, you know. And

987
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,000
he didn't like that because they weren't very good. He

988
00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:25,400
lost his control of the team. And then he immediately

989
00:47:25,400 --> 00:47:28,239
goes to college. And in college, you know, when there's

990
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:32,159
no transferring, you can treat guys as poorly as you

991
00:47:32,199 --> 00:47:34,320
want them, you know, you can. You can be rate them,

992
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,480
you can humiliate them, and that's kind of that old

993
00:47:36,480 --> 00:47:39,519
school coaching that Nick Saban profess. And then you know,

994
00:47:39,599 --> 00:47:41,960
I mean it's very common. I talked to my former

995
00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:44,400
teammates in the NFL who are Alabama guys. This isn't

996
00:47:44,519 --> 00:47:46,960
new news. I'm not breaking any news right now. But

997
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:50,280
they paid guys before you could actually pay guys, so

998
00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:52,119
they had a corner on all these market you know,

999
00:47:52,199 --> 00:47:55,400
paying all these this talent, you could control them, and

1000
00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:58,840
it did. It created a lack of parody, and it

1001
00:47:58,920 --> 00:48:02,440
tilted the you know, the the advantage in their favor.

1002
00:48:02,519 --> 00:48:04,960
And other teams that did the same thing, and both

1003
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:08,199
the Big ten the SEC and all of a sudden,

1004
00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:10,920
you don't have Nick Saban coaching because he can't thrive

1005
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:13,400
in this environment, just like he couldn't thrive in Miami.

1006
00:48:13,440 --> 00:48:15,840
And I look at college football now as a close

1007
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:19,280
and is paralleled to the NFL because it's like free agency,

1008
00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:21,760
but it's every year free agency. So you have to

1009
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:24,119
have a coaching staff that's enjoyable to work with that

1010
00:48:24,119 --> 00:48:27,599
they're going to develop you. And then at the same time,

1011
00:48:28,079 --> 00:48:30,800
you know, you can acquire talent in the open market.

1012
00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:32,880
And so every year, like Utah, I mean they want

1013
00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:37,199
from a really bought basement, basement, bottom of the basement

1014
00:48:37,280 --> 00:48:40,000
team last year, and then they rebuilt through the portal

1015
00:48:40,039 --> 00:48:43,119
basically and through hiring you know, John Beck and getting

1016
00:48:43,199 --> 00:48:47,280
Dan Pierre or Jason Beck excuse me to now having

1017
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,239
a legit, you know, top tiered offense in the in

1018
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:52,039
the whole college football, you know. So it's just more parody,

1019
00:48:52,239 --> 00:48:54,360
that's the bottom line. It's more parody. And like I said,

1020
00:48:54,400 --> 00:48:56,079
the big indicator that as you look at a guy

1021
00:48:56,159 --> 00:48:58,239
like Nick Saban, the fact that he doesn't want to

1022
00:48:58,239 --> 00:49:00,599
play and he's cried that it's actually unfair, that's a

1023
00:49:00,599 --> 00:49:03,239
good sign we all should be worried if all of

1024
00:49:03,280 --> 00:49:05,440
a sudden he gets back into coaching. We should all

1025
00:49:05,480 --> 00:49:08,440
be like, well, the system's changing, we should all be concerned.

1026
00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:10,360
But no, I think this is the best time college

1027
00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:13,199
football has ever been because I even with b YU

1028
00:49:13,239 --> 00:49:16,159
at eight to zero, I'm not feeling this stress like,

1029
00:49:16,159 --> 00:49:19,039
oh man, we better go undefeated or are chances that

1030
00:49:19,199 --> 00:49:21,719
going for a championship are gone. I don't feel that

1031
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:23,440
way at all. You know, I feel like, hey, we

1032
00:49:23,519 --> 00:49:25,039
got to get better week in and week out. We

1033
00:49:25,079 --> 00:49:27,840
got to go compete. But it's not like there's zero

1034
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:29,960
margin of air here. You know, we could go and

1035
00:49:30,119 --> 00:49:33,159
have a hiccup here and pick ourselves up and win there,

1036
00:49:33,239 --> 00:49:35,880
and even have another hiccup and still find ourselves in

1037
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:38,719
the championship game. And that's why, like, the rankings really

1038
00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:40,679
don't mean much to me right now, because it's like,

1039
00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:43,079
who cares, We're gonna this is long gonna play out anyway.

1040
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,199
You know, whether we're in top ten, we're in the

1041
00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:48,039
top five, top twenty five, doesn't matter. You know, we're

1042
00:49:48,039 --> 00:49:50,360
gonna get a chance to either qualify for the championship

1043
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,639
for the conference or not. If we do, we're gonna

1044
00:49:52,639 --> 00:49:54,320
have a chance then to go face whoever's gonna be

1045
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:56,519
in that championship game to then qualify for a playoff

1046
00:49:56,559 --> 00:49:59,199
spot or a big boat or not. And it's all

1047
00:49:59,199 --> 00:50:01,039
gonna be determined a on the field. That's all you

1048
00:50:01,039 --> 00:50:03,239
can ask one. That's why it's a beautiful system.

1049
00:50:04,159 --> 00:50:08,000
Speaker 2: Yes, indeed, Great Insight is always ready for pick a brady.

1050
00:50:08,039 --> 00:50:10,400
Last thing, for those that are looking to build out

1051
00:50:10,400 --> 00:50:13,079
a gym at their home or at their commercial space,

1052
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:16,400
why should they contact you and get involved with the

1053
00:50:16,559 --> 00:50:21,519
XPT the XPT dot com.

1054
00:50:21,599 --> 00:50:21,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1055
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:24,079
Speaker 4: The biggest thing we want to show is that we

1056
00:50:24,119 --> 00:50:26,679
are number one customer service. That's why we first out

1057
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:29,079
of the gate offer a free service, which is a

1058
00:50:29,119 --> 00:50:31,480
gym design service. Doesn't matter to the size of the space.

1059
00:50:31,519 --> 00:50:33,199
It could be a room in your home or a

1060
00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:37,159
huge twenty thousand foot commercial space. It's a design service

1061
00:50:37,159 --> 00:50:40,360
to where we add in or we input the dimensions

1062
00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,320
of the space into our three D software system. We

1063
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:45,400
take your input from the equipment you want, the type

1064
00:50:45,400 --> 00:50:48,760
of flooring, the mirrors, how you ideally you'd like it configured.

1065
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:52,519
We then build you a design based off of those parameters. Afterwards,

1066
00:50:52,559 --> 00:50:55,480
we collaborate and we dial that design into exactly what

1067
00:50:55,519 --> 00:50:58,440
you'd like. You'll be able to see it literally just

1068
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:01,199
as though it was already installed in a digital format,

1069
00:51:01,519 --> 00:51:04,000
and then afterwards we were able to implement everything. We're

1070
00:51:04,039 --> 00:51:06,719
able to take you from the process of you're you know,

1071
00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:10,159
having the perfect gym and visualize in your mind all

1072
00:51:10,199 --> 00:51:14,199
the way to the implementation of that installation. Again, it's

1073
00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:16,559
a free service. You could contact me directly at eight

1074
00:51:16,599 --> 00:51:18,800

by football if you wanted too, in the middle of it.

1078
00:51:25,840 --> 00:51:28,519
But it's something that is an opportunity for us to

1079
00:51:28,559 --> 00:51:30,559

This has never happened before. Guys, It is crazy. It

1136
00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:08,159
is insane BYU being a top ten team and they

1137
00:54:08,519 --> 00:54:13,119
are facing a top ten team right the highest ranked

1138
00:54:14,920 --> 00:54:18,760
opponent that by who has faced while being a top

1139
00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:23,760
ten teams. There's two occasions, and they were both ranked

1140
00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:27,320
fourteenth in the country. It was Cosa, Carolina in twenty

1141
00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:30,000
twenty and then nineteen ninety seven Cotton Bowl Kansas State.

1142
00:54:31,000 --> 00:54:35,320
Those are the highest ranked teams that boy has played

1143
00:54:35,639 --> 00:54:37,960
when they were a top ten team. Pretty crazy to

1144
00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:43,800
think that this is going to be a game in

1145
00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:46,199
